The Old Guard 2: Exclusive New Photos from the Netflix Action Sequel


IGN can exclusively reveal four new photos from Netflix’s The Old Guard 2, which can be seen by scrolling through the gallery below. Like the 2020 original, the action sequel is based on the graphic novel series of the same name written by Greg Rucka and Illustrated by Leandro Fernandez.

Oscar winner Charlize Theron reprises her role as Andromache of Scythia, aka Andy, the leader of a band of immortal mercenaries who must once again protect humanity from a grave threat, but Andy’s situation is far more dire here than it was in the first film. (Read IGN’s The Old Guard review.)

“The stakes have never been higher. Andy is mortal now, so there’s a very real possibility that she could die during any mission this time around,” Theron told us via e-mail.

“The last film saw some intense changes in the dynamic of the group: Andy lost her immortality, Nile [KiKi Layne] became immortal, and Booker [Matthias Schoenaerts] was exiled. We see that Andy’s leadership style has changed. Because she’s mortal now, she’s dedicating however much time she has left to doing the most good she can.”

Theron, who is also a producer on the movie, said “the Old Guard has also never been more powerful — with Nile fully assimilated into the group, they’re even more lethal, and the action sequences in this film are next-level. They’ll face old friends and new foes, and Andy will certainly have to face her past in a way we haven’t seen yet – and decide what that means for her future, however long that might be.”

In addition to Theron, Layne, and Schoenaerts, Chiwetel Ejiofor returns as the team’s handler Copley and Marwan Kenzari and Luca Marinelli are back as Joe and Nicky, respectively.

Veronica Ngô also returns as former Old Guard member Quynh, who it was revealed in the original film had escaped her centuries-long underwater imprisonment.

Kill Bill’s Uma Thurman has joined the cast in an undisclosed role, while The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’s Henry Golding plays a team member named Tuah.

Victoria Mahoney directs The Old Guard 2 from a screenplay by Greg Rucka and Sarah L. Walker.

The Old Guard 2 launches on Netflix on July 2, 2025.
